Many colleges are now cancelling non-profitable sports. This will affect our future Olympics in track and field, swimming, diving, water polo, wrestling, volleyball, rowing, handball, badminton, weightlifting, gymnastics, and others.

They keep track of medals won by University, keep in mind, that these are not all necessarily athletes who competed for the US:

USC and Stanford usually win because they tend to make up a lot of teams, so each individual on the team who attended the school gets counted, even if it's just one event. But the counts are pretty impressive, and just shows how important our Universities play.
